Voorhees, TumbIes to Grover.

Fne president has received many
calls Of congratulation on the result OF
the election In New York state. Sena-
tor Voorhees,, OF Indiana, who was one
of the earliest callers, thew overheard

presidents non-partisan civil service
theories and emphatioally declared in
the presidential ante-rOOm, and alter
ward at his club, that the result was
gloriOus.-New York Times.

To Danl in the ante-roOm,
I'm ready, sir, to wave my flannel
And hump me for Cleveland boom!
HE did right well by Brother German,
And helped the boys in Baltimore;
That's business and that's what I'm for, man
This hit emhard reform galore!
"The Fellows letter was a booster,
For nothing better had we prayed;
Trot out the Democratic rooster,
And give the Mugs serenade!

In Gotham, and IL ran tirst-rate;
He sent to Buckeyedom moreover,
Something with which to lubricate.

taken such determined political
stand and made political action to
reyolve around the saloons. Two
things are settled. Prohibition views
are not destined to be popular In Amer
lea, they SAVIOR too strongly of an inter-
ference with the individual liberty Of
the citizens, and are too foreign to the
genius and spirit Of our institutions to
become general or even more than tenn
pOrarily important. The other fact is
that the domination of the liquor ele-
ment in politics, as observed in all our
large cities and In some smaller ones, IL
destined to come to an end. The one
extreme is as pernicious to our institu-
lions as the other, and neither can OBJ
tain. The rights OF the citizen as aciti-
zen, and not as a man carrying on par
ticular business, is the concern OF politi-
cal parties.
The democracy are In trouble over the
Ohio situation. They seem to fear that
Sherman and Foraker may clash in the
national convention and in their over
weening interest in the success and hsr-
mony of the republican party are fra
terDally solicitors over the outcome.
Perhaps experiencing the i'll results of
having themselves placed mere state
governor, without any experience in ma
tional affairs, In the presidential chair
they are afraid Ohio may follow suit.
The democracy may possess their souls
In patience Cleveland Is no more to be
compared to Foraker for knowledge
of national affairs and for that instinct
of craftsmanship which all political
leaders possess, than little niger is to
q dark night. Not only so, the republi-
can party will be tut upon Its good be-
haviOr In the next convention and may
be trusted to make the best nomination
possible; and that, If not the best actual,
will be good enough to carry this coun-
try into the safe and patriotic arms OF
republican craftsmanship and admins

In their A. surances OF interest In the
wOrkingmon and frequently pose as the
friends OF labor. These men are gently
reminded that Cardinal Gibbons, in pre-
senting the accommodation OF the la
Dor organs OF this country, has laid the
workingmen OF America under great OBJ
legations. These obligations have been
increased by his recent act sending to
the vatican further documents relating
to the Knights OF Labor and showing
that the association. not being hostile TO
the Roman church, should not be mo-
Tested, and that the church should sup

small proportion did so on ecclesiastical
grounds.

SAVED MY MOTHERS LIFE,

Ever since | can remember, my mother has
suffered from milk leg. Nothing would do
her any good. She had the best medical tai
ent, but they all did her no good. She suffered
with hcl leg for thirty years and never knew a
well day. She would have TO set up half the
night holding up her leg and moaning. She
had no peace. She used all the best known
remedies in the country without effect.
asked her TO try your CUTICURA REMEDIES.
Got her bottle of CUTICURA REsOLvEST, and
she took il, and has taken IN all about six or
seven bottles, and now she is a well woman
to-day. Her leg is entirely healed, and her
health was never better. She can go out every
day, something she has not done in ten years.
so you see cannot help stating to you about
your wonderful CUTICURA REMEDIES. You
have saved my mothers life. ! cannot find
vertised your CUTICURA REMEDIES far and

A Chronic Tendency overcome
Many persons are troubled with a chronic

waited by a resort to drastic purgativcs ana

The problem Of prohibition is to be
solved by the republican states, not by
the democratic ones. The republican
states are getting over the foolishness OF
a few fanatics, and are coming to see
the whole question in its sensible and
rational relations. That solution is seen
in New York, Ohio, Minnesota, Miehi-

of the regulations imposed. The whole
trouble, SO far as the political aspects of
